Opis: The Princess Casamassima, Vol. 2 of 3 - James Henry

Excerpt from The Princess Casamassima, Vol. 2 of 3: A Novel<br><br>The aspect of South Street, Mayfair, on a Sunday afternoon in August, is not enlivening, yet the Prince had stood for ten minutes gazing out of the window at the genteel vacancy of the scene; at the closed blinds of the opposite houses, the lonely policeman on the corner, covering a yawn with a white cotton hand, the low-pitched light itself, which seemed conscious of an obligation to observe the decency of the British Sabbath. The Prince, however, had a talent for that kind of attitude; it was one of the things by which he had exasperated his wife; he could remain motionless, with the aid of some casual support for his high, lean person, considering serenely and inexpressively any object that might lie before him and presenting his aristocratic head at a favourable angle, for periods of extraordinary length.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
